I think he's one of the most perfectly cast characters in the show so far and that's saying a lot! They hit the nail on the head with him. And the bit of screenwriting with him killing Lorch was great.WillyGilligan wrote:So how are you feeling about him so far?Raygun wrote:Yeah. I just read an interview with the actor that's playing him in the upcoming season. He's one of the characters I'm really interested in seeing how they pull off.
The only bit of casting I'm on the fence about is Asha/Yara (and I still think changing her name was dumb). The girl is a fine actress, but I imagined Asha as much sexier, you know? Raven-haired hot pirate chick. But that's a pretty minor gripe.
Yeah, everyone seems to. I really like it too. Though it does make you wonder how they're going to handle her and Bolton.I'm really loving the back and forth with Arya and Tywin,
Yeah, they've gone off, left out, hopefully pushed back... None of the changes are too bad, though there are things missing that I wish weren't, like the Reeds. I hope they show up at some point.Serious Paul wrote:Am I the only one who feels like they've gone off script in a few spots? I'm not saying its a bad thing, yet, just different.
Really? The way I see it, Tywin is one step away from the closest personification of evil in the whole story so far (with Ramsay Bolton being numero uno; though I suppose one could argue that Tywin is no worse than Roose and the Mountain is just as bad as Ramsay). True, he loves his family (except Tyrion) and he will do anything - including ordering the random killing and torturing of innocent people - to secure his family's power and fortune. I think 'ruthless' sums him up in a word. He may never directly get his hands dirty (well, except for that deer!), but he is most definitely a bad person.Tiny Deev wrote:Tywin is not a bad person. Stern, but not without love. He loved his wife, loves his children and loves his House.
